It's a bit ridiculous. Before they came in, they thought they would compete for strength, speed, or resourcefulness. Unexpectedly, the game called people to compete to grow flowers.
Brian recalled that before entering the game, those attribute values were obviously a balanced game. Force, intelligence, and spirit all had certain requirements, but at least it seemed to him now that there was no "useful place".
…
The flower seedlings grow very fast, and when the second 6 hours are approaching, seven or eight leaves have grown, and the seedlings can be moved.
The soil they brought back was enough for three people, but there was not much wood.
Brian glanced at the remaining wood piled up not far away, and guessed in his heart that when the woman came again, she would have to go out to find supplies.
They need more fuel to maintain the temperature needed for flower seedlings to grow.
Teacher Cheng was sitting by the fire with his eyes closed.
Brian thought for a while, then moved Adra to a farther place, and said in a low voice, "I'll take the old man out to find supplies later, you take the opportunity... to destroy his seedlings."
Ed's eyes widened suddenly, looking at him in surprise.
"What's wrong?" Brian frowned, "Didn't we discuss it before? The rules of the game forbid us to attack him, but they didn't say we couldn't attack the flower. As long as he destroys his flower seedlings, the woman will naturally deal with him... "
"No way!" Ed refused with gritted teeth, showing a bit of excitement, "The old man can't be in trouble now! What if something happens to our flower?! He must stay until the end!"
"Are you stupid? Leave it for later, what if you don't have a chance to deal with him?" Brian frowned even more, "The flower seedlings have already been moved to the pot, we just need to pay more attention later, otherwise we will wait another 6 hours, and the roses will bloom. When I grow up, the old man will start to guard against us, and it will be even more difficult to deal with at that time."
"No, no! In short, I don't agree!" Ed shook his head vigorously, "I'm not afraid of ten thousand, but I'm afraid, at least wait for the buds to grow, otherwise I must not attack the old man!"
"Why can't you explain it?!" Brian was a little annoyed, and his voice became louder unconsciously.
Cheng Wei just opened his eyes and looked over, the two of them were silent for a while, both of them embarrassed.
Cheng Wei didn't say anything, the old man took a sip of water silently, poured some water on the flower seedling, and then stared at the flower seedling, wondering what he was thinking.
Seeing this, Brian bumped Ed with his elbow and whispered, "Maybe he heard all those words just now, don't be stupid, he has already started to guard against us, I will take him out later, you You have to do it, understand?"
Ed moved his lips, and although he disagreed, he remained silent.
Soon, the second 6 hours arrived.
The Snow Queen came silently again. This time, because the three pots of flowers were all safe, there were no victims.
She looked at the tender flower seedlings in each pot, her cold eyes gradually softened, and she looked at it for a long time, and then, like last time, said, "I will come back in 6 hours."
The Snow Queen left.
Brian glanced at Ed, coughed lightly, and said, "The wood won't last long. If the seedlings continue to grow and the soil is not enough, we have to go to the city again... Ed, you stay to take care of our seedlings, Keep warm and don't let the fire go out."
Ed turned his head away and said annoyed "um".
Brian looked at Cheng Weicai again: "Mr. Cheng, I can't bring much supplies by myself, you see..."
"I'll go too." Teacher Cheng sighed softly, "It's windy and snowy outside, it's really too embarrassing for you to find supplies alone..."
Brian forced a smile: "Yes, you don't have to worry too much. With Ed helping us, the roses will be fine..."
The voice stopped abruptly.
Because he saw that, Cheng Wei took out a severed hand from his arms and gently placed it beside the flower pot...
